Recently, I was updating my new Captivate using Kies Mini and the update failed, I flashed a couple of ROMs using Odinoneclick and after a couple of tries, I ****ed up my phone, I got it to a point where it would go through a boot loop and eventually get to the GB rom I installed but even that barely worked. Now I finally got my phone into download mode (actually the screeen with the pic of the phone then the triangle then the computer) but my phone wont be detected by my laptop (as in no message pops up as I plug it in) so I can't do an Odin Oneclick to stock 2.1. What can I do to fix this?
Thanks in advance

If you installed Heimdall, Odin won't work on the same USB port. I assume you already tried deleting and reinstalling your drivers?
The only thing that worked for me when that happened before was using a different USB port and finaly flashed KK4 through Odin. If you have access to another pc, that would probably fix your connection problem as well (as long as that pc has the needed drivers).

Well then you don't have that many options left. If I were you, I'd keep trying to delete/reinstall drivers (of course, pc restart), swapping USB port and try both Odin and Heimdall (remember that Odin won't work on the same USB port as Heimwall installed his drivers on). Perhaps, using a different usb cable would work too. After that, the only thing I can think would be to use a different pc.
Sometime it's a mix of those things that will make it work, our cappys are quite capricious lol.

I made a 300k ohm jig and it worked but now when I try it, I think it puts the phone in Firmware error mode or whatever its called, or am I just doing it wrong
U r doing it right. That can be an alternate download mode.
U just got to get Odin or Heimdall to recoqnize it now, so u can flash a Stock firmware.
Have u tried using a different micro usb/usb cable to get Odin to see ur phone ? And usb port in the back of the pc, not a hub ?

It's a laptop and I've tried every USB port, and Idh any other cables
Ok...but if u can get ur hands on another cable, it would definately be worth a try, especially if all else is not working. I have personally see it and read it over and over that a different cable does the trick.

Idk about most likely...but like i said, if u have exhausted all other means, then it is worth trying.
I personally found several at a Dollar Tree store over a year and a half ago. I use one of them all of the time instead of the one that came with the phone, because that samsung cable just stopped workin for me just outta the blue. It happens. One day a trustworthy cable and then one day not. And of all things, the cable i got for a $1 has worked great. :thumbup:

So I'm trying to flash back to stock on my Captivate so I can put CM7 on it. I'm currently running the latest version of Cognition. The phone is recognized by my computer and adb when it is on, and the odin3 one-click downloader detects it, but as soon as I go into download mode my computer doesn't recognize the device and it doesn't show up on odin. I've tried rebooting the computer and getting to download mode multiple ways but nothing is working. Any ideas?
Are you unplugged, going into download mode, then plugging in the USB?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA App
Tried that, still nothing
Plug usb into pc only, then load odin. After odin loads put the phone in dl mode THEN plug usb into phone. Odin should read it then. Its the only way it would work on my windows 7 64bit.
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I897 using XDA Premium App
Still nothing. I don't know what the deal is.
Perhaps trying a different USB port...I think the port needs to be directly wired to the motherboard.
You do not need to flash stock to flash cm7, you just need a kernel on your phone with a custom recovery so that you can flash the efs backup zip prior to flashing the cm7 initial kernel.
Are you using factory cord
have you tried multiple ports
Have you tried reinstalling drivers
Had odin worked for you before
True. But what if he wants to flash back to a 2.2 rom? He still needs dl mode
If I have helped press thanks.

Using a non-factory cord, factory one is broken

can't figure out how to reinstall the drivers for the life of me
never used odin before
You sure the cord you are using is a data cord and not just a charging cord

Positive. I've been using it to send files between my computer and my phone. And my phone shows up on odin when its not in download mode.
I'm helping my friend install CM7.
So i installed cm7 on my friends phone, but the drivers for the phone weren't installing on my windows 7(64bit) computer. so i went into recovery tried to flash a different rom, but it wouldnt let me, so i tried running a backup(2.2 froyo), it got to the bootloader sequence and then it aborted. I idiotically decided to just click on reboot phone and now its stuck on the Att logo screen. But I can boot into DOWNLOAD MODE, i just cant run odin since my drivers aren't installed.
I can't install the drivers on my computer. I tried the 64 and 32 bit, I tried the drivers from the samsung website, and i also tried the Kies_Mini_For_Captivate. I tried all of these while running cm7 and now.
Is the phone bricked or could it still be saved?
Thanks in advance if anyone could help me.
Thanks to rselvaggio for helping me try to get the drivers installed, but no luck.
If the phone shows ANY signs of life, there is hope. Try using your buddies computer. And I would recommend using drivers from DesignGears page on one click recovery. Remember, search is your friend. Use it early, use itoften.

^^^ what he said.
Just search for the drivers and get them installed on some computer, then you will be able to use odin one click to go back to stock. Make sure you get the right odin though, should be the simple one with only two buttons.

AIO Captivate toolbox also has the drivers and ODIN 1click all in a nice packaged download.
Hi guys, i know this topic has been talked to death but i literally tried everything. 3 cables, 4 computers. i have 2 captivate and one of them needs to be sent back for repairs, but i cannot restore to stock. The phone is fully working, with access to CWM and download mode, but my computer just wont recognize it. I have to send it back to rogers but there is a huge ATnT load screen on it
did any one find a fix to the usb problem? i just need to use ODIN
OR is there any way to CWM back to stock from CM7, and changing the splash screen?
thanks
edit: forgot to mention that the phone can charge though usb, it gives me the "USB device not recognized" thing on all of my computers
Are you on CM7 right now?
im currently on MIUI but i could flash to CM7 from an external microSD
its the drivers. sec, ill find the ones that solved it for me.

bump, no one has any solutions?
Give this a try
1. On the cell phone, dial the following number: *#7284#
Once the last # is hit, the PhoneUtil application is launched. Choose USB -> Modem and then USB -> PDA mode.
The good mode should be PDA. Even if the mode is PDA, switch to Modem and then back to PDA.
2. Plug the USB cable.

thanks for the reply but CM7 doesnt support USSD from what i've been reading, and does nothing when i type that in
What I had to do to get my recognized by odin was go into download mode and then pull the battery and brick my phone and then connect it to kies and it will repair the drivers then use jig to get into download mode and flash as normal
---------- Post added at 09:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:18 PM ----------
I should mention I have done this several times when coming from a cm7 rom with same results
how do you brick the phone if it is not flashing anything
EDIT2:
Problem solved! The problem seemed to be with my computer, using a different one resolved the connectivity issues. The BSOD kept on poping up during the Odin flash. The tablet will show a screen saying te update went wrong en you have to connect to Kies. However, give it a factory reset and you will be able to boot normally. For me the blue screen popped up 4 times, the fifth time it worked. So I guess, just keep trying!
___EDIT1____
Ok, so I was finally able to get the tablet connected to a different computer. I tried flashing the stock ICS firmware via Odin, however I get a blue screen on my PC during the process. I am able to restart both my PC and the tablet, so I can also get into download mode. I have tried it 3 times, blue screen keeps on popping up.
What to do??

Hello all!
I've had lurked around here some months ago, learning how to root my tab and how to install a custom rom. Now that Samsung has finally come with their update (ICS ) I'm trying to install this update on my p7310. I have donwloaded the correct software from sammobile.com, however, my PC (Win 7) does not recognize the tab when connecting via USB, so I'm unable to use Odin. Win 7 shows the device status: ''Windows has stopped this device because it has reported problems. (Code 43)''.
I have tried re-installing Kies, have re-installed the drivers from this thread, have tried it on all the USB ports and have tried two different USB cables. I have tried it with both 'USB Debugging' turned on and off and have given it a reset/data wipe.
The tablet is able to charge normally via the wall charger and does charge when connected to the PC.
My tablet:
GT-P7310
Android version: 4.0.4
Kernel-version: 2.6.36.4_motley_v3+ [email protected] #81 SMP PREEMPT Thu Apr 5 12:35:41 EDT 2012
Build number: IMM76D
Mod Version: aokp-b32-galaxiansoup-p5wifi
I hope someone can help me solve this problem.
Greetings,
Painore
Does Odin recognize the device? I've been able to flash thru odin even when the computer doesn't recognize the device. If the com port lights up in odin you should be ok.

Use original Samsung USB cable. Charging and data pins are different.
Cheap USB cables will only charge the phone, but you'll have no data connection.

When you connect the phone to the computer do you hear Windows specific USB device connection sound? If you do, then the computer sees something connected, but doesn't recognize the device. As BWolf56 said, check again your drivers. If there is no reaction when you connect the phone to the PC, then it's either the cable or phone's micro USB port. Also, try different USB ports on the computer. Use the ones to the back on desktop computers, not on the front panel. Good luck!

I highly doubt it. CWM wouldn't delete something that hurt itself.
Last thing I can think of is checking your usb port's and cable's data pins, perhaps they're damaged.
gamfunny,
U could also try one of my Heimdall One Clicks. See here... http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=18370912&postcount=3
Heimdall uses different usb drivers. There is a Read Me file included in the downloads, with full instructions. I would suggest u have a Jig (u can make or buy one easily) just in case u need a way to get into download mode and the button combo won't work.
